Sumario:This innovative study of naturally-occurring English conversations between Hong Kong Chinese and their native English friends and colleagues makes a worthwhile contribution to the research literature on intercultural conversation.

The study focuses on five features of conversational interaction -- disagreements, compliments and compliment responses, simultaneous talk, discourse.
